The submm spectrum of nearby galaxies (PNG)
Maryvonne Gerin, Alessandra Contursi, Thomas G. Phillips
We have undertaken a survey of the main gas cooling lines at submm wavelengths in nearby galaxies. The same submillimeter lines have now been detected towards distant QSOs with mm interferometer. We present recent results on our survey which will be useful for comparing nearby and distant star forming galaxies.
